Transformed! The Image of God. (Part 1)




"The Spirit of the Lord will rest on Him. The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, of counsel, might and the fear of the Lord" - Isaiah 11:2

We as Christians have what Jesus has. We have power, we have wisdom, we have everything we ever needed. But we just need a bit of an update and/or an activation. Before you use an app, do the details for your account just pop up? No. You need to activate it, just as we need to here. Or we need to update. We can find out amazing truths about God, through His Word. If we need understanding, we just unlock or activate it and the Holy Spirit guides us into that particular scripture. 

Are there any other religions that lead to Heaven?
No. Jesus said so: "Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." - John 14:6. The Father (God) lives in Heaven, so the only way to It is through Jesus only that we get to Heaven. 

Why are the other religions here? Why doesn't Jesus destroy them all? 
The Bible says that the world is corrupt, and the god of this world (Satan - 2 Corinthians 4:4) has blinded them so they may not see the truth and be saved from the evil clutches of sin. Proof texts: 
Romans 1:28 
Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 
2 Corinthians 4:4 
The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

I just want to point out a marvellous fact about our power in Christ. We are the light of the Gospel, and the image of God. Look at this: 
2 Corinthians 3:18 
And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

We need to keep our image in Christ, and not forget it. We must know that, whatever happens, will remain the glory of Christ. We are transformed into a new creation, fully-embodied with the power of Christ. This power was given to raise, restore and deliver but most importantly to SAVE.  

Seek
And
Value the lost souls on
Earth

We have power but we just need to activate it and understand what it is worth. If the whole world knew, there would be no room for Church.
What does the power of the Lord do?

Psalm 93:1
The LORD reigns, He is clothed with majesty; The LORD has clothed and girded Himself with strength; Indeed, the world is firmly established, it will not be moved.

We reign over the Earth! But we are tempted. The devil knows this to. He wants to get us into his loop holes and drag us out of this, spectacular power! We gain strength and learn how to maintain and use our power correctly by reading god’s Word, as the Spirit guides.

The Godly Godliness

1 Timothy 4:7 -  7  Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales;  rather, train yourself to be godly.  The godliness Paul is talking about here means piety to God, a revered holiness. What do I mean? Well, on what we do we should have a holiness for him. Our clothing, people should be able to say 'this is a real Christian'. Our behaviour should also have a holiness. A fear of God. As the Bible says, the fear of God gives life. This holiness is about the things you do, how you respond to God and to the things of God. Our character influences the way we live and what we do-it's the way people determine who you are, for it is always the inner man the speaks out. They are books and magazines you shouldn't read, things you shouldn't watch and games you shouldn't play. The excuse 'it's Christian' won't work this time! Watch with your children - make sure you are sure of what they watch. Never forget who you are in Christ: His own, o...

STOP HOLDING ONTO FLESH!

“He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.” John 14:21 KJV http://bible.com/1/jhn.14.21.kjv We can see from this verse that a true follower of Jesus obeys his commands. But why do we find it difficult to follow Jesus? It’s because we are still holding onto flesh. We don’t want to let go, we think we can be both of God and of the flesh. But for you to work with God, the flesh must be dead. The flesh is your mind, emotions and your will. I repeat, God cannot work with you if the flesh is still alive. We cannot still hold on to the flesh. We are still sitting on the fence, not going in or out. Jesus said: “So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:16 KJV http://bible.com/1/rev.3.16.kjv Let’s stop holding onto the flesh!

Pondering the Bible: How can a good God allow evil?

""The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?" Jeremiah 17:9 NKJV http://bible.com/114/jer.17.9.nkjv Q:  How can a good God allow evil?  This is the question I get from many Christianity skeptics. Well, let’s think all the way back to the beginning. God gave Adam and Eve a choice. To remain in His goodness, and enjoy a peaceful, free life, or go their own way and define good and evil for yourself. We all know what happened. The point I’m trying to make is,  man chose to do evil.  If you decide to deliberately burn yourself by putting your hand in an oven, you can’t blame the cook for that. It’s the same thing!  Man chose to do evil.  Well, why can’t God get rid of evil?  Do you want to remove your existence? Well, God doesn’t. You see, if God removed evil, He would have to remove man in the process, as man is evil. But He found a way to remove evil from us without wiping us out. He sent Jesus to die for u...
